True love on the water
What a life, this was about the end of my super cool beard. It wasn't growing much after the first six weeks so it had to go.

Camping over spring break
We sailed the entire lake, all 38 miles from our cove to the dam. Crew was me, Steven and Tommy with Sassy along for luck. Perfect weather and beautiful camp, nothing bur national park, wildlife management area and not a light to be seen. To see full gallery click here

sea trials 2012
Have we had a good time with this baby all summer. Here it is Nov and she is still in the water, and still sailing in the cooler weather. She handles like a dream and practically sails herself. There are three or four coves we frequent regularly and you can see a few of them in this gallery, which is from weeks over the summer and fall.

boat restoration
Well, $300.00 and everything inside the cockpit had to be replaced. Water had gotten in and set for years destroying everything made of wood. Had a great time working with my son on this project and can't wait to put her in the water.

new mooring
After a hot rainless summer the water in the lake drops. Our dock sits in the mud and we have a chance to burn all the wood that has drifted into the lagoon.

captain tom
Steve and I really have a pair, crossing the lake in this 10 footer, the sailboat is much safer. This will do around 13 knots which is much faster than the day sailor.

The Campsite
When we first started coming up here not even cell phones worked, we would have yo drive up the road just to phone home. Now we have high speed internet and phone reception. Gonna have to get me one of those phones someday.
